Statements Regarding Results in Phiia-

ored.
PHILADELPHIA, March 3l.--This weeks
Medical Ne,cs to be issued tomorrow, will
state that recent articles, extensively pub
lished throughout the country, announc-
ing the cure at the Philadelphia
Hospital OF number OF patients
suffering with consumption, through
treatment by injection Of carbonic
acid gas and sulphuretted hydrogen,
greatly exaggerated in the success OF the
treatment. The treatment, 1t says, was
first introduced by Bergeon, Of Lyons, and
adds editorially "Very many Of the
statements which have been spread broad
cast over the country are absolutely false.
So far as we know, there have been no
cases cured, certainly not at the Philadcl-
phia Hospital, and even those Of Bcrgeon's
patients who were most benefited
continued to have slight expectoration
containing bacilli. The results at
the Philadelphia Hospital, in the lin
tied series of cases which have
been under treatment, have been in the
reduction of the fever and sweats, the
lesscning Of the expectoration, and in the
increase of weight. These are gains to be
thankful for, and encourage us to hope
that we may have here remedial meas
urc of some value, but further than this
nothing can be said. Phthisis, as we
usually meet it, is an acute disease, and an
experience Of seven weeks is far too short
time in which to form u judgment of the
permanent beneficent effects of the treat

Roughs Attack n Salvation Army Meeting
and n Fearful Battle Wages for Twenty
Minutes.
SAVANNAH, Ca, April 3.-The Salvation
Army meeting here tonight was the scene
Of a riot which imperiled scores of lives.
The army meets in Ford's Hall and has
nightly attracted three or four hundred
people. Tonight an immense throng sur
rounded the building. While the saliva
tion band was playing the police appeared
and arrested five members Of the army
who played the instruments. At the
barracks they refused offers of bail and
said they would make test case. Three
Of the army who were not arrested an
nounced to the crowd that they would con-
duct the meeting. The hall was quickly fill-
ed to its sutmostcapacity,a AN unusually largo
sprinkling Of roughs being in the crowd.
AT nine o'clock, one Of the roughs insulted
lady sitting near him. Her escort struck
him in the face. In an instant the roughs
rose in body and prccipitated fight.
Some Of the more respectable men present
championcd the cause Of the lady's protec-
tor and forty or fifty men where soon in
volved in terrible free for all fight. Many
of the roughs were armed with clubs and
chairs and other movable objects were
used with terrible effect Several pistols
were flourished, but for some reason no
shots were fired. There was no policeman
present. and the combatants fought for
twenty minutes before detail Of blue
coats arrived and cleared the hall. Two
men suffered broken noses, several had
teeth knocked out and twenty-five others
were more or less seriously battered up.
The hundred and fifty or more women
present added to the confusion by scream
ing and rushing about the hall seek
ing safety from the flying missiles. Many
OF them huddled in terror on the stage.
The scene of the fight was at the head of
narrow fight of stairs which furnished
the only exit from the hall, and to escape
to the street necessitated charging through
the very thickest of the fray. Had the
| stairway been accessible many lives
would probably have been lost in the
panic-stricken rush of women. The atti.
tude of the police force towards the army
| does not meet with popular approval.

Positions Going Begging.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-There have been
ten vacancies in the Medical Corps of the
Navy for nearly two years. The Surgeon
General has found it difficult to secure
suitable physicians to fill the vacancies
which have occurred during that time from
death, resignation, or other causes. Tho
official of the Bureau of Medicine and Sur
gerry say that unless some provision is
made by which the inducements to enter
the navy will become equal to those Of
fered candidates for appointment to the
medical corps Of the army, it will soon be
impossible to prevail upon reputable
young physician to accept n commission
as assistant surgeon in the navy.

TIGHTENING THE COIL.
The Sioux City Brewer Charged
With the Death of Rev.
Mr.. Haddock.
Koschinscli, Alias Bismarck, Corroborates
Leavitt ana Fitzsimmons-The Victims
wife Taints During the Recital.

Sioux CITY, Iowa, March 3O.-This was
| the most interesting and exciting day, 40
| far, of tho Haddock trial, and the court
room was jammed from the opening until
| tho closing hour. Mrs. Haddock, tho wild
ow of the murdered clergyman, occupied
| front seat within tho bar, and evidenced
deep grief as reference was frequently
made to her late husband. The first wit
ness called was Albert Kosnitzi better
known as "Bismarck," the eyewitness of
theltragedy, who was arrested and brought
back from San Francisco. He spoke in
broken German, and his testimony was at
once forcible and interesting and graphic.
He recited how Treiber had induced him to
hunt up Granda and tell him If he would
whip the "Priestcr" and give him two
black eyes he would receive $500, and how
Granda had finally weakened and refused
to whip Haddock. Bismarck continued,
thoroughly corroborating Leavitt and
describing minutely every movement
OF the consprators on that
fateful day, and which led up to and fol.
lowed the homicide; the meeting of Had
dock and Arensdorf, and how the latter,
after passing the ''pricster," suddenly
whirled1 and fred the leaden mes
senger of death. The illustration was
most dramatic, and a brcathlcss silence
followed the realistic description. The
witness related all about how Arcnsdorf
had given him, through Fricber, Sl2 to
leave the country; how he (Bismarck) had
got drunk, his wife taken the money,
and then again Arensdorf approached
him with the words: "Why have you
not left? Did oyou not get the money
from Frieber to go! If you remain
here you will get drunk, tell what you
know and then be sent to the peniten-
tiary. l have plenty of money, and they
will never send me to jail" The witness
describes his being driven to Salix, where
Fritz Folger gave him more money, and
then Bismarck went to San Francisco
When he came back to Omaha he was
shown picture of Harry Lcavitt and
assured by the mayor and city marshal of
Sioux City that it was picture of
the man who they believed had done
the shooting. He told them it was not,
and though they insisted, he en-
phatically maintained then and there
that John Arensdorf was the murderer.
The witness testimony was most thorough
and exact from beginning to end, and a
rigorous examination failed to cripple it
in the least. So far the State has made
wonderfully strong case. During the
afternoon, while Bismarck was graphic
ally describing the murder, Mrs. Haddock
suddenly tainted and was carried into an
ante-room. Restoratives were admins
tered and she soon rallied and again
peared in the courtroom.

At Vandalia the storm has ragged severely
throughout the day, covering the ground

Arensdori's Defense.

SIOUX CRY, IA, April 1.-The defense in
the Haddock trial consists in charging
Leavitt with the act of murder. Witnesses
this morning have sworn positively that
an hour before the murder they saw
Leavitt on Fourth street, wearing light
pants. Other witnesses testified to his
having made remarks about killing Had
dock the day Of the murder. The testi-
mony, however, is not wholly confined to
Leavitt, part of it being directed against
the character and utterances of "Bis-
marck." Out of the number Of witnesses
so far called all are saloon men with but
two exceptions. They generally leave tho
stand more or less confused by the severe
cross-eXamination of the States counsel.

ST. LOUIS, March 31.-The Republican will
tomorrow publish fruit and vegetable
crop reports from twentyone States, in
cluding all the Gulf and Mississippi Val
ley States. They show that the peach
crop has been killed for the most
part in Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky,
Tennessee and Arkansas, but that Texas,
Louisiana and Mississippi will produce a
full crop. The apple crop will be fully up
to the average. The pear yield will be
fair, while the grape in Illinois, Missouri
and adjoining territory will be larger
than for several years. The strawberry
crop will be lighter than for two or three
years. A great deal of damage was occa-
stoned to vegetables by this weeks cold
snap in the South, but the yield there will
be fair and the general average high.

COLUMBIA, s. C., March 3O.-Information
has been received here of an outrage COM

for which Captain Lewis Poinsett, of the
sloop Carrie and Hattie, will probably
suffer- largo party of negro laborers,
who had been working ON river planta-
tion on one side of the river were being
conveyed across to their homes on the
other side in tlatboat. When the boat
was in the middle Of tho stream it was
passed by the sloop. After passing about
100 yards the sloop came about, and not
withstanding the ample room in the river,
ran directly into the flatboat, which was
partially split open and a number of men
knocked into the river, four of them being
drowned. The jury of inquest put the re-
sponsibility on Captain Poinsett, who has
been committed to Jail.

The international Railway Tightly
Blockaded.
Fifteen Hundred Passengers Cut or for
Over n week.-Hardships Endured by
tho Unfortunates-snow Piled Thirty
Feet Deep.


MoNcroN, N. B, April 1.-The great snow
blockade on the Northern Division Of tho
Intercolonial railway still continues, to
the discomfort and even suffering of hum
dreds of belated travellers. Fully fifteen
hundred passengers, including seven hum
dred immigrants, are halted on their
route, and the railway authorities arc
straining every nerve to get food to the
passengers and the fifteen hundred work.
men that are trying to dig them out. Ono
train is at River Du Loup, another at St.
Luce, and another ut st. Flavien, Sir
Charles and Lady Tupper being passen-
gers on the latter. A break has been made
from st. Flavien to Campbellton, and two
blocked trains between these points are
working their way out through tunnel
of snow. All the northern mails since
last Thursday from Prince Edward
Island, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia
are at st. Flavien, and seven mail clerks
are guarding them. Fully one-half of the
conductors, baggage-masters and express
managers that run on the line are hemmed
in at this point. A dispatch from New
castle, five hours ride from Moncton,
says that the Quebec night train, the first
that has pessed the New Brunswick
borders since Friday last, has worked its
way through. 1t has seven cars, all laden
with people who have been delayed by the
storm of the week, exhausted and worn by
their long sojourn amid snowdrifts and
frost. They are freed at last only by
the superhuman efforts Of fifteen hundred
men, who have worked night and day.
On Tuesday the shovelers were so ex-
hausted that p. s. Archibald, chief en-
gineer, started with special train and all
the men he could collect for the scene. He
arrived at Campbellton, pushed his way
through to st. Flavien, and last night,
about eight o'clock, broke the blockade.
People have no idea what amount of snow
there is on the New Brunswick northern
borders. In order to clear the track OF
snow five terraces were made from the
rail to the summit of the bank, and
each line of men threw to the ter
race above, and in many places snow-drifts
are thirty feet in depth. During their
weeks sojourn in the drifts passengers
endured great hardships, although the
railway authorities did all they could to
make them comfortable. 1t was fortunate
for the women and children that SO many
sleepers We're showed in with them, and
no scruples were observed in taking coal
from cars on the sidings to supply them
with fuel

KALAKAUA'S HEAD.

Incensed Cinnamon Offer Five Thousand
Dollars for 1t.
SAN Francisco, April 3.-Captain McCul-
Tough, who arrived few days ago in COM
mand of the brig VIM. G.. Irwin from the
Sandwich Islands, relates remarkable
story of Chinese enmity against King
Kalakaua. He states that certain
Chinese firm paid a bribe of $4,000 to
a native officer holding a high position
to secure his influence in obtaining the
exclusive right to sell opium in the Ha-
waiian Kingdom, and that the Chinese
firm in question failed to secure the prize.
They then demanded a return of the bribe,
which was refused. Mccullough further
states that the Chinese have decided not
to submit to what they consider an out
rage, and when he left the walls of Homo
lulu were covered with handbills, in Chi
nese, offering reward Of 5000 for the
head of King Kalalsaua. 1t is said that
the guards have been doubled about the
palace.
